 I used a parameter file that was empty except for comments:
 {{{
 # ActiveThorns = "PUGH"
 # ActiveThorns = "MultiThreading"
 # ActiveThorns = "FunHPC"
 }}}

 Cactus complais about this:
 {{{
 Activating thorn Cactus...Success -> active implementation Cactus
 WARNING level 0 from host  process 0
   while executing schedule bin (none), routine (no thorn)::(no routine)
   in thorn cactus, file multithreading.par:1:
   -> ERROR IN PARAMETER FILE:In rule 'file::skipper' Line=3, Column=84
 # ActiveThorns = "PUGH"
 # ActiveThorns = "MultiThreading"
 # ActiveThorns = "FunHPC"
 }}}
